Hi Corkette Was going through a mass of e-mail in my inbox from the Kirkcudbright list and got this info for you, hope you still need it! 1851 Census Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire, Enumeration district 10, Place: 14 Harbour Street, Creetown. Samuel Vernon, head of household, married, aged 48, Trade: a Sawyer, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Jean Vernon, wife, married, aged 47, born Wigtown, Wigtownshire. Marion Vernon, daughter, aged 11, at home, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. William Vernon, son, aged 9, at home, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Jane Vernon, daughter, aged 6, Scholar, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Alexander Vernon, son, aged 4, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Also in the 1851 Census Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire, Enumeration district 10, Place: 7 Bells Wynd, Creetown. Mary Vernon, head of household, married, aged 47, born England. Adam Vernon, son, unmarried, aged 16, Trade: Sailor, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Alexander Vernon, son, aged 13, Scholar, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. John Vernon, son, aged 10, Scholar, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Ann Vernon, daughter, aged 4, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. And in the 1851 Census Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire, Enumeration district 9, Place: 3 St John's Street, Creetown. Alexander Vernon, head of household, married, aged 32, Trade: Stonemason, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Elizabeth Vernon, wife, married, aged 20, wife of Stonemason, born Wigtown Wigtownshire. Alexander Vernon, son, aged 3, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Jannet Vernon, daughter, aged 7 months, born Kirkmabreck, Kirkcudbrightshire. Probably all related, they are the only Vernons in the 1851 Kirkmabreck Census. There are only three others in all of the 1851 Census for all of Kirkcudbrightshire: Parish of Kirkcudbright, High Street, Kirkcudbright, Isabella Vernon, head of household, unmarried, aged 35, Trade: Laundress, born Creetown, Kirkcudbrightshire. Parish of Minnigaffe, Cree Bridge, household of John Walker: Mary Vernon, unmarried aged 16, General Servant, born Newton Stewart, Kirkcudbrightshire. Parish of Kelton, King Street, Castle Douglas, Jannet Vernon, daughter of Joseph Campbell, widow, aged 38, Trade: Seamstress, born Kelton, Kirkcudbrightshire. As there are so few Vernons it is likely that they will al be related somehow. Hope this helps, Regards, Erica Johnson. ----- Original Message ----- From: Corkette <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Wednesday, November 07, 2001 6:56 PM Subject: Kirkmabreck 1851-1861 census? > HELP!!!

I built the Local History Week Website see www.dgfhs.org.uk/DiG_History especially since you are arriving in May. There is an entry there for the Stewartry Museum but they didn't list a contact address. But I don't think it is a secret that the Curator is Dr David Devereux and his email address is: <A HREF="mailto:[email protected]">[email protected]</A> If it is a secret I didn't tell you!

Mr Gray lives at Ingleston Borgue Kirkcudbrightshire and may be the person to help you find someone who knew your 2xGtAunt. Why not try writing to him. Good luck Anne Greenly

Hi everyone, I'm researching my Great Great Aunt Jean Simpson who was a primary school teacher at Borgue School in Borgue, i think 1950's right up to her sudden death 1962. She was my grandfathers mother's sister and i would really love to her from anyone who remembers her and could tell me what she was like, her mannerisms etc, maybe someone has an old school photo, perhaps her pupils or fellow teachers. I would dearly love to obtain some info however small...If you remember her please get in touch. Many thanks. Regards Corinna Hardy [email protected]

Dear Grant: I was looking thorugh the surname list of those that have already registered for DNA testing. I find one with a Ross Surname interest. I have copied both the Clan Ross mailing list and the Ross surname mailing list to see if there is any interest in more Ross descendants to start testing or if there is already a group underway. There is a lot of work being done on getting data to convert the marker and allele results from one lab to be compatible with scores from another lab. So in that case, it wouldn't matter which Lab does the work. We chose GeneTree due to the higher number of markers and the specific markers used seemed to be in line with the markers that would be able to identify the Scottish ancestry;. As you know the 4 main groups in Scottish ancestry ( Celts, Picts etc) had unique markers and we tried to take that into consideration. In Addition, Genetree is affilliated with Relative Genetics and the BYU study so I felt that this gave access to a wider range of prospective matches in Scottish Clans. That was also one reason, that we encouraged the study of the MtDNA ( females) so that this data could also contribute to possible relationships between the Clans &Families. Hope this answeres your questions.
